After much deliberation by Governors, both jointly and separately, and following the Full Governing Body meeting on the 26th January 2017, Governors agreed to register our interest in converting to academy status and becoming part of the Inclusive Multi Academy Trust. The Inclusive Multi Academy Trust is a newly formed MAT whose Chief Executive Officer is Mr Roach and which currently consists of one school – Laurance Haines School.

There are of course arguments on both sides and we are keen to hear the views and questions of all parents and any other individuals, partners and stakeholders who have an interest in the continued success of Beechfield School. The formal consultation process ends on 20th March 2017 at 12 noon. Responses received by that date and time will be considered and responded to by the Governing Body. We encourage everyone to make their views known. You can share your views by submitting them in writing to the school office, emailing them to admin@beechfield.herts.sch.uk, or speaking to Mr Roach directly.
